the macbook air is the cheapest and it has ports, but the screen is ANCIENT.

the 12 inch macbook is tiny, but it costs more and only has one usb-c port

it only has one port and it costs more?! welcome to dongletown: population usb-c.

i thought apple was supposed to be simpler! it is! but you must embrace the apple philosophy.

whats that? spend twice as much and get a macbook pro.

  • Lol, I went MacBook Air! It's not perfect, but the price sure was and you'd/Apple'd have never got me to switch at $999+ Now that i have one, i could see myself plopping down some serious dough later, but for a first Mac, it's got to be cheap. I got mine from Bestbuy on a student sale for $650 Now that i have one i can see myself investing a really awesome iMac in the future, but the Air had everything i needed including support for all the accessories i purchased for other Windows machines over the years. I didn't need to also upgrade all of that too.
